    Michael Seifert: Taking Care of Business And Woke-ing Overtime

    CEO of Public Sq. Michael Seifert joins us on this episode of Brace4Impact to discuss his ever expanding business, which seeks to help consumers find companies whose mission statements line up with their personal beliefs.  As more consumers have been forced into dealing with monopolies like Amazon, Uber, major streaming services, banks and other necessities, PublicSq in unique, in that it shows which companies still stand by certain values.  It also gives citizens an alternative to corporations that rake in massive profits and invest them into highly politicized or WOKE projects with poor financial return.  Using the recent collapse of Silicon Valley Bank (SVB) and its Woke investing that helped bring it to its knees as an example, Michael explains how people can reverse gears and take back personal power through their hard earned dollars.  He discusses the blowback that’s occurred in his life since he launched the company, his continued disruption of the current marketplace where he thinks the future of American commerce is headed from here.  It was educational, futuristic, hopeful, but most importantly -- it’s an innovative idea that is much needed in the United States today.   Social Media: Twitter: @realmichaelself  Instagram: @realmichaelseifert Website: Publicsq.com See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

    Hollie McKay: To The Ends of The Earth

    Author, journalist, writer and my former colleague at Fox News Hollie McKay joins us on this episode of Brace4Impact, to discuss potential fixes and accountability for the opioid and Fentanyl crisis, her experiences reporting abroad for many years, and how the personal story of just one person can change the world.  Hollie, who is now an independent journalist, has reported from Afghanistan, Ukraine, parts of Europe and other locations abroad, to tell the stories of downtrodden people who’ve been trampled by tyranny, yet who still found a way to recover some semblance of normalcy and happiness in their lives.  She also discusses why people are leaving bigger media companies and how these organizations may soon become dinosaurs, as internet podcasting and online posting becomes king.  She genuinely cares about making life better for those who have suffered, by telling their stories in a compelling and honest way to inspire others all over the world. Truly, one of the best in the business and a great ally to have in your corner when you’re facing insurmountable odds.  We fit so much info into just a half hour of talking and she delivered her thoughts completely unvarnished. Something that can’t be said for many in this business.  I recommend keeping an eye on her work because no matter where she is reporting from, or who she is doing it for -- her stories always seemed to stand head and shoulders above the rest, reminding me of a simpler time in media that we badly need to get back to.  Enjoy and always remember what one can do when they are simply armed with the power of belief.  Hollie McKay social Links:  Twitter: @holliesmckay Instagram: @holliesmckay Substack: http://holliesmckay.substack.com See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

    Sharyl Attkisson: The Whole Truth And Nothing But The Truth

    In a world being strangled by false narratives, for-profit lies and fear – Journalist, author, and investigator Sharyl Attkisson shares how she continues to bring truth to the American public and what steps citizens can take to maintain our nation’s unique system of checks and balances.  Sharyl is one of the few people left in this business who still believes in getting to the truth. No matter how uncomfortable or difficult it might be to unearth.  She is a five-time Emmy award winner, Edward R. Murrow award recipient, New York Times bestselling author and host of her own show through Sinclair entitled “Full Measure,” which airs on Sundays.  Attkisson is also one of the few journalists to have flown in a B-52 on a combat mission (over Kosovo) and in an F-15 fighter jet Combat Air Patrol flight. And as a cherry on top, she is also a fourth degree black belt in Taekwondo.  We discuss her current investigation into COVID-19, her probe into January 6th, her newest book that is soon due out – which marks the fourth time she’s been published – and how she copes with the stress of speaking truth to power.  I hope you derive the same sense of purpose that I did from it, as we show you the men and women of the frontlines, fighting to preserve a sense of sanity and honesty within our country. Enjoy!  Sharyl Social Handles:  Instagram: Sharyl_attkisson  Twitter: @SharylAttkisson All her major work: Sharylattkisson.com See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
